Life's What You Make It

Chapter 27

Jasmine's POV
"Hey girl!" Kelly said when I went down the stairs. "How's those ribs?"

"Sore but the meds are helping." I replied.

"Kelly where's Titan?" Blue asked.

"Guess." She rolled her eyes.

"Daddy?"

"Ooo got it in one. They having some boy time."

"When's dinner?" I asked.

"Change of plan, Shawn's not cooking anymore, so we're gonna order." Bey replied chuckling.

"Why?"

"He dropped the pan and it broke and the food went everywhere."

"Was that was the crash noise was? I heard you swear mommy." Blue said.

"As long as you don't go repeating it."

"What and when are we eating?" Kelly asked.

"Chicken." She replied, and I scrunched my face. "Of course, you can go upstairs and starve for the evening, if you'd prefer?"

"Did I say that?" I asked, folding my arms. "Because I don't think I did."

"Your face says otherwise." She said, unfolding my arms and tapping my cheeks.

"We had chicken yesterday, can't we eat something different?"

"You paying are you? Kelly, Jasmine's just offered to pay for dinner."

"Aw aren't you sweet." Kelly said laughing.

"I've got no money." I said in a duh tone and Bey raised her eyebrow.

"Go ask your dad." Bey said and I huffed, turning around and going into the kitchen where I saw Shawn sat at the table with Titan.

"Shawn, can we eat something else?"

"What like?" He asked.

"Something that's not chicken, we ate that yesterday."

"You know, I thought the exact same, but Bey had her mind set." He replied.

"But now it's two against one, so we can win this battle."

"Three." Titan spoke out, holding three tiny fingers up and pointing to himself.

"Three against one, even better." I said.

"We don't know what Kelly and Blue will say." Shawn said.

"It'll be five against one if we went to Benihanas."

"You ain't wrong kid, you ain't wrong." He said.

"You tell them." I said.

"Oh I see how it is... come on then." He said chuckling and picked Titan up before walking out the kitchen and into the living room. "Benihana's anyone?"

"For dinner? Yes please." Blue said, jumping up. Bey looked over at me and gave me a slight evil eye.

"Well would you look at that, four against one Bey." I said.

"Kelly's not said anything yet, so take one number off your four please."

"You forget about my son Bey, that boy eats anything. But I'm kinda with Jas on this-" Kelly said and I laughed.

"Wow looks like you've been outvoted." I said, mentally cheering.

"You going to get it then?" Bey asked. "Have a nice walk now."
